Manufacturing as a Career

THEN & NOW

Manufacturing today is much different from the assembly-line work, dark gritty factories and low paying jobs that often come to mind.

MODERN MANUFACTURING IS A SOPHISTICATED PROFESSIONAL WORKPLACE THAT INCORPORATES AUTOMATION, 3-D PRINTING, SCREEN TECHNOLOGY, AND ROBOTICS.

Today’s facilities are safe, well-lit, ventilated, and high tech. It’s now a dynamic field full of opportunity and innovation that promises a career path and job security. Today’s manufacturing careers are sophisticated for both your sons and daughters and depending on your child’s interest, there are opportunities in the industry from marketing and logistics to advanced technical, production professionals, supervisors, and management.

Completing a certificate or a degree from a College of Technology (COT) pathway program is the first step to a rewarding career in manufacturing.
